Line Stops Wedemeyer
Los Angeles, Nov. 17 U.R)
The University of California at
Los Angeles turned in one of
the biggest upsets of the 1945
collegiate football season today
by defeating St. Mary's college's
wonder team 13 to 7 before 90,
000 astounded spectators.
Fourteen point underdogs to
the St. Mary's team, UCLA
yielded a first-period touch
down on a fumble, then stormed
back to win in the last minute
of play.
It was a great triumph for
southpaw Ernie Case, UCLA
quarterback, a war veteran who
started slowly this year but im
proved each game, reaching his
peak today when he passed
UCLA to its sensational victory.
It was also a great triumph
for the UCLA line which had
consistently outplayed Its op
ponents all year. The line play
prevented the great Herman
Wedemeyer, St. Mary's ail-
American candidate from ex
hibiting his passing wizardry.
and the slippery Cordeiro from
getting off his usual long runs.
It was unheralded Brooks
Diddle, who didn't get into the
game until the final period, who
sparked UCLA's 84-yard drive
that put across the winning
touchdown, with Biddle taking
16-yard pass from Case for
the winning margin.
Midway in the first period.
Jock Boyd dropped a punt on
his own 13 yard line and
Schultz pounced on the ball. It
took Wedemeyer Just two plays
to score the first touchdown. He
also added the extra point.
Fumbles and pass Intercep
tions held UCLA back, but St.
Mary's made its only other real
threat soon after when Wede
mcycr took a lateral from Cor
dciro passed to Schultz on the
UCLA 25-yard line. Schultz
dropped the ball but O'Connor i
scooped It up and carried It to
the UCLA eight. But UCLA's
line braced and held. i
After two great second half
klckoff run-backs by Wede t
meyer were nullified by penal ;
tics, UCLA moved quickly to :

This Is ilia
Passenger tire quotas for November are 2,500,000. This is the same as it has
been for the past several months. With a slight increase next month, it will
mean that the entire yearly distribution will average one new tire per pas
senger car. Now Let us see why YOU do not get tires. First, quotas are
'too small to meet the demand. Second, inventories in the hands of dealers
' are the smallest in history. The entire production of the rubber industry this
month will do nothing more than fill backlog orders in the hands of manu
facturers (more than 2 million) and the unfilled certificates in the hands of
the public (more than 800,000). These have not been turned into tires be
cause dealer stocks are virtually empty. Deliveries from manufacturers are
two and three months behind. This is the complete story verified by offici
als in the government agencies having to do with tire production and offici-bution.
